Dear [livejournal.com profile] rivier and [livejournal.com profile] blktauna, I saw this and thought of you... ;)

E.T.A. am currently amused by reading an obviously unBrit-picked HP story which has Remus working at McD's in Glasgow with people who actually speak in complete sentences, and where he has found a pet shop where they not only sell pedigree dogs in the window but also where the owner plans to offer him £9 an hour starting salary.

Bleah. Is hard to write Brit. I just caught myself saying "suspenders" instead of "braces" in a hobbit fic.

*threatens to have you proofread all 167+ words of Making of Samwise before I zine it someday*

167 would be better! :P

Oh, come on. You're just dying to read all 167,000 (probably more like 175,000 or 200,000 by the time I'm done for good) words of those poor little tortured hobbits who are sixty-three parts in and still haven't got to shag yet.....

I've been working on this fic for 3 years come Feb. 25 of next year. These hobbits' balls are so blue they squeak when the hobbits walk!

I categorically refuse to be psyched out after all the Stargate fics I read with Daniel going into the loo and turning on the tap and blimey does he fancy Jack! I just do the best I can on my own and then beg for help. ;)

You've read The Wizards of Aus (http://www.ozemail.com.au/~brussell/wiz.htm), of course? ;)

Depends on how pervy a hobbit he is, I guess! ;)

Heh. Well, these things were supposed to hold his pants up, not help him hang from the ceiling.

And yes, I should say trousers because pants = underwear.

I don't think people at McD's in the US speak in complete sentences, either. Unless, of course, you consider "Welcome to *bzzzzt crackle* may I take your *static*?" or "Do you want *bzzzzzt* that?" or "That'll be *crackle, static, crackle* thank you drive through," complete sentences. ;)

LOL, for 9 Pounds/hour even I would consider working there, since that's way over 10Eur.

I think someone forgot to calculate the exchange rate, particularly since minimum wage over here is £4.85 an hour...

Ah, the love that wears clothes you can be *proud* of!

Admit it. You're jealous of that mop of soft, clean, silky hair. And the absence of skiddies.

Hee! Too funny. I don't read much HP -- only laugh at the bad ones friends point out to me -- but I believe the common possession of guns and people getting bankrupted by the NHS are among my faves.
